Strategy to optimize the independent suspension system of an off-highway, agricultural tractor
Futurities Year 19 n°4
By Federico Bavaresco, Lorenzo Bellorini – DANA
This article provides a more detailed discussion of the case study on the design optimization of the independent suspension axle of an off-highway vehicle (OHV) that was published in the summer edition of EnginSoft’s Newsletter last year.
The purpose of the case study was to implement a design methodology that used multi-disciplinary simulation and an automated process to analyse thousands of product configurations and highlight vehicle performance distributions in terms of handling, comfort, and cost.
This approach ensures that the best solution is always selected.
CASE STUDY
Optimization tools, and specifically response surface methods (RSM), can be adapted very well in the design process to provide information around the design of a compressor stage. This article will cover two of the possible optimization uses: the search of optimum performance and data generation.

CASE STUDY
The advent of the Naked Motorcycle has changed the way we look at motorcycle parts: they now also need to be aesthetically pleasing because they are mostly visible to the naked eye.
